Helios Crowns His Mistress. Michelle Smart

      

       ‘We don’t marry for love or companionship, as other people do. We marry for the good of our island. Think of my betrothal as a business arrangement. But you are my lover. You are the woman I want to be with.’

      For an age Amy didn’t say anything. She simply looked into Helios’s eyes, searching for something—she didn’t know what.

      He brought his face down to meet her lips, which had parted.

      ‘I mean it, Helios, we’re finished. I will never be your mistress.’ Her words were but a whisper.

      ‘You think?’

      ‘Yes.’

      ‘Then why are you still standing here? Why is your breath still warm on my face?’

      Brushing his lips across the softness of her cheek, he gripped her bottom and ground her to him, letting her feel his desire for her.

      The tiniest of moans escaped her throat.

      ‘See?’ He trailed kisses over her delicate ear. ‘You do want me. But you’re punishing me.’

      ‘DO YOU REALLY have to shave it off?’ Amy Green, busy admiring Helios’s rear view, slipped a cajoling tone into her plea.

      Helios met her eye in the reflection of the bathroom mirror and winked. ‘It will grow back.’

      She pouted. Carefully. The clay mask she’d applied to her face had dried, making it hard for her to move her features without
